It's the time of year when Leigh's Fall flowers start blooming in the garden....I can't resist the color as the beautiful late season light hits the reds and yellows......I painted this very same scene in 2008 when there was a lot more sunflowers in it(click here to view). The two paintings are similar yet very different. It is interesting to see the progression of style and paint application.

Leigh and Jim purchased a few of these vintage garden chairs to put under the apple tree in the vegetable garden.........I immediately saw their potential for painting purposes and finally got out of the studio to paint them on a nice sunny afternoon...
